I don't mind them giving extras to people buying the game.

THANK YOU! FUCKING THANK-YOU!

 

Somebody has some basic common sense in this thread *hugs*

If only it were you... since you don't seem to understand that the term "extra" is fairly meaningless in this case. 

Once again... you see it as a big difference that content is available online day 1 then the disc?

If I were to say release Uncharted 3... with the online mode as an "extra download" day 1... am i really giving people an extra?

Online mode is something that is a part of the game as a whole and therefore should be on the disc no matter what. I think companies complaining about used game sales is pathetic since good games are kept. 

But if this map pack would be DLC anyway and DICE decides to give it to me for free if I buy the game new, I see it as a win-win situation. It's not like I really miss out on something important if I buy the game used.

DICE gave away DLC for free in BF1.  It's the same difference.

For another example.

It'd be like Team Fortress 3 came out... and instead of the free class updates... Valve made you buy the Class updates if you didn't buy the game through steam or something.


It IS taking away value because it is charging for something that was once free in the series.

I'm generally against all forms of paid DLC, but I fiured that all HD console games already have paid DLC, so that's why I don't mind this method. That's the basis of my opinion. But you're right, paid DLC sucks in all forms.

I never bought DLC in my life, but what's wrong with them? Are you against the expansion packs that PC has?

Expansion packs usually have tons of content in them. Most paid DLC doesn't have enough content to justify paying for it. Giving it away for free would be better long term to give the companies a good image.



I LOVE ICELAND!
